He knew what kind of physique he had. Even if he had been out and about these days, it was still not enough for him to have a fit build. If he wanted to train to be as agile and swift as her, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
“You don’t need to practice.” Jiang Yue continued to walk forward with her back facing him. “You have me.”
Xue Yan looked up at the sky. To be protected by a baby girl was really…
However, they were already a family, so it was fine to be protected. He could protect her in other aspects. He was not a good-for-nothing brother after all.
Thinking of this, Xue Yan became more relieved.
After coming out of the mountains, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan dug up a few wild vegetables and held them in their hands. Then, they went home.
When they passed by Xue Zhuzi’s house, because the yard was fenced and not tall, they didn’t get to see the situation inside the yard.
In the courtyard, Xue Zhuzi — who had been beaten half to death by Xue Dagui — could barely get out of bed today. Zhang Meili was helping him to a bamboo chair in the courtyard.
When Xue Zhuzi and Zhang Meili saw Jiang Yue and Xue Yan, their eyes were filled with hatred.
Especially more so when they saw Xue Yan, they were reminded of the scene when Xue Yan was holding an ax. Their eyes burned with resentment.
However, Xue Dagui had already made it clear that they were not allowed to cause any more trouble. Plus, they were not allowed to provoke anyone from Xue Dafu’s family. He was afraid that Xue Dafu won’t acknowledge him as his younger brother and would not want to have contact with him for the rest of his life, so they could only endure it.
The two of them were full of resentment, but Xue Yan didn’t seem to sense it and Jiang Yue did not take it to heart.
In their opinion, as long as Xue Dafu was determined, even if the two of them came looking for trouble, it would be easy to deal with them. She won’t even need to do anything. Xue Dafu would probably fulfill his promise and beat the two of them up every time he saw them.
Just as they were about to reach the door of their house, Wang Sufen suddenly walked out of their house with a smile on her face. Because her house was in the other direction, she walked in the other direction and did not notice them.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan exchanged a look. Then, they continued to go home.
“Xue Yan, Jiang Yue, you’re back with a basket full of wild vegetables so quickly?”
Under the shed, Li Hehua was helping Xue Yifu move the wood from one side to the other. When she first saw Jiang Yue and Xue Yan, she quickly put down the wood in her hands and walked over quickly to help unload the basket on Xue Yan’s back. She was afraid that the contents of the basket would be too for the seven-year-old.
She subconsciously looked down and found that it wasn’t a basket of wild vegetables, but a basket of things that looked like mushrooms. It wasn’t very heavy, so Li Hehua immediately asked, “What is this?”
Xue Yifu was currently sanding the wood, preparing to make a wheel. The workshop needed a wheel, and the flow from the mountains would bring the wheel along with it to spin. One wheel would drive another wheel, and then then the workshop would self-powered. There was no need for human strength to push it, and many wheels of various sizes were needed. Hearing this, he put down his work and strode over to take a look.
Yu Hongyan was sitting at the door of the central room, arranging her needlework. Liu Guixia was standing in the corridor, wearing a straw hat as she was prepared to go out. When she heard them, she came over to take a look.
Jiang Yue was not in a hurry to answer, so she asked, “What was that auntie doing here?”
Yu Hongyan immediately said in a bad mood, “She just thinks that our family is the richest in the village. Last time, she asked if we can chat when we are free, and she really came today. She’s always like this, trying to build a relationship with whoever has a good life. She came not long after you left in the morning. If Liu Guixua didn’t say that we have to carry feces to the field, she would not have left!”
“What about father and the rest?” Xue Yan asked.
